Note: I simply did a Google search on "embed google calendar." That was the first of many links that popped up. Please feel free to repeat the search and you'll have lots of resources to choose from.

I'm fairly certain that the individual will need more than "paste the iframe into your webpage". How is this done in VSD? I don't use VSD so I don't know.
CoffeeCup... Yeah, they are the best!

My expectation is he'll simply need to paste the offered code into an HTML object. There is a wealth of other links available, a little research and it should be fairly do-able.

Okay finally had some time to test it. Just as I thought: simply open up the settings of your Gmail calendar, look for the "Embed this calendar" section and copy the provided text. Drop an HTML object into your page, paste in the code, and you're almost done. Only other thing I had to do was resize the web page a bit as the default size VSD gave it was too small to hold it.
Done.
Done.

Here's a screen shot of the Google settings page. The big circle marks the code you want to copy.

Yes, I did it on this site....

Just grab the html as described above and paste it into an html object from VSD. You may have to change the size parameters a bit in the provide html code, but it works like a charm
